Characterized for more than 20 years, it is a function of phytochrome, a key plant photoreceptor. Enrichment in far red light in shade, through selective filtering/reflectance, lowers the proportion ...

Stand establishment—the healthy early development of a plant taking root in soil—is a critical indicator for crop success. Understanding precisely how photoreceptors contribute to this ...

How they do so is now being elucidated. We see color because photoreceptor cones in our eyes detect light waves corresponding to red, green, and blue, while dimness or brightness is detected by ...

His specific focus is on plant photobiology, specifically how photoreceptor systems and signalling networks regulate plant developmental characteristics and physiological responses, especially those ...
